Dougie Hamilton extended the Bruins lead with a snipe from the point at 13:33.

Patrice Bergeron started things off with a shot on net and Daniel Paille followed up sending the rebound back to the net. As the puck once again bounced off Jacob Markstrom’s pads, Shawn Thronton collected it and quickly passed it to Hamilton, who fired it by the Panthers’ goalie to extend the lead 2-0.

The Bruins got their first power play at 5:18 off of a Jonathan Huberdeau hooking penalty. Bergeron got off three shots, but the B’s were unable to convert.

Jaromir Jagr had a near breakaway but got tripped up by Filip Kuba. The Panthers’ defender got sent to the box giving the Bruins another penalty at 16:32, but the B’s weren’t nearly as efficient on this power play as they were earlier in the period.
